Zach Pascal caught a pass from Gardner Minshew to set up goal-to-go but then dropped a touchdown in the end zone. Second drive: The Eagles took over with good field position at the Jets’ 20-yard line. Not a shocker considering he’s barely taken practice reps recently. No snaps for the undrafted rookie free agent QB. (OK, I wrote that before his penultimate drive where he made some good throws to help the Eagles take the lead. Not challenging for the QB2 spot with a showing like that. Sinnett has looked relatively good in the practices but he sure didn’t look good tonight. His numbers would look a bit better if it weren’t for two big drops by Pascal (touchdown) and Watkins (first down). Minshew looked better in this game than he has in most practices this summer. Seriously, though, a strong night for No. But I’m not going to say anything about that. I would note that, if not for the late hit penalty, the offense would’ve had to go for it on 4th-and-5 after he bailed a clean pocket for no gain. Exactly what you wanted to see from a relatively small sample size. He efficiently led the offense to the end zone for a score. Stock up night for Hurts, who looked comfortable and in command out there. He also fielded the Eagles’ second punt return for no gain. Jalen Reagor fielded the Eagles’ first punt return. The fourth Siposs punt went for 59 yards, a bomb. You’d like to see him pin the other team back further than that. Covey was back for the Eagles’ fourth kick return but the ball was kicked through the end zone for a touchback.Īrryn Siposs’s first punt went for 27 yards, downed at the Jets’ 16-yard line. Covey was back for the Eagles’ fifth punt return, which went for a 5-yard gain. Covey was also back for the Eagles’ fourth punt return, which was a fair catch. He dodged the first tackle but ultimately got swarmed and taken down for a 1-yard loss at the Eagles’ own 5-yard line. The ball went further then he expected, leading him to catch it over his shoulder. Covey was back for the Eagles’ third punt return. Had a real chance to break it all the way but got tripped up from behind.īritain Covey was back for the Eagles’ second kick return. He fielded the ball about three yards into the end zone and brought it out for a 43-yard gain. Huntley was back out for the third kick return. Jason Huntley was back for the Eagles’ first kick return. #NYJvsPHI on /GR1obyR9Ry- Philadelphia Eagles AugSPECIAL TEAMS Sirianni was still demonstratively jawing at the refs several plays later. Jordan Mailata got up in the Jets defender’s face and Nick Sirianni ran out onto the field FURIOUS. But Hurts took a big shot to the head as he went out of bounds, which obviously prompted a penalty. On third down, Hurts had time to throw but he bailed the pocket and ran to the right side for no gain. A false start set the Eagles back and then another short completion to Watkins brought up 3rd-and-5. Then Hurts hit Dallas Goedert over the middle for six yards. Then Hurts dumped off to Miles Sanders for 12 yards. Jalen Hurts faced pressure up the middle with Sua Opeta getting beat but he rolled right and hit Quez Watkins along the right sideline for a 28-yard completion. STARTING OFFENSEįirst drive: The Eagles won the opening coin toss and elected to receive. Read on for some noteworthy moments from Friday night’s action. What does matter is some of the performances from this game. The final score was 24 to 21 with the Eagles losing. But, alas, things are different this year. A little strange to type since these two teams usually end their preseason schedules against each other. The Philadelphia Eagles kicked off their 2022 preseason schedule with a home game against the New York Jets.
